[GHC] #9807: Clarify warning if LLVM is not found by configure
#9807: Clarify warning if LLVM is not found by configure -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ihmccreery | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 7.8.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Unknown | Type of failure: Blocked By: | Documentation bug Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When running `./configure` to build GHC, and `opt` is not found, the current output is:
<no location info>: Warning: Couldn't figure out LLVM version! Make sure you have installed LLVM ghc: could not execute: opt failed to compile
When I first saw this, I thought that this was causing the entire compiler build to fail. To clarify that this isn't a critical error, should it be something more like:
checking for llvm... no

Comment:
Thanks for the report. A patch is up for review. It will now just show:
{{{
checking for llc... no
checking for opt... no
}}}
or
{{{
checking for llc... yes
checking for opt... yes
checking whether bootstrap compiler is affected by bug 9439...
